Homes Under $500,000 in Marysvale, Utah
Marysvale sits along US-89 in Piute County, wedged between the Tushar Mountains and the Sevier River about an hour south of Richfield. It's a town of roughly 400 people, a handful of hot springs, and easy access to Big Rock Candy Mountain and the Fishlake and Dixie National Forests. Under $500K isn't a stretch category here — it's close to the whole market. Most homes in town, from older brick cottages near Main Street to newer cabins tucked against the foothills, land well below that number, with plenty of usable acreage or ATV/UTV trail access thrown in for buyers used to paying city prices for a quarter of the land.
What you're buying at this price point ranges widely: a modest fixer on a town lot, a manufactured home on a few acres, or a small cabin built for weekend use rather than year-round living. Winters bring real snow and some homes rely on wood heat or propane rather than natural gas, so it's worth checking utility setup before you get attached to a listing. Marysvale also draws a specific buyer — people chasing OHV access to Paiute Trail System, hot springs proximity, or just a cheap, quiet base in central Utah away from Wasatch Front prices and traffic.

Common questions
About homes under $500k in Marysvale.
What kind of home does $500K buy in Marysvale? ▾
In Marysvale, $500K is solid money. At this price point buyers are typically looking at full-size single-family homes on larger lots, older cabins with acreage, or newer builds with shop space and room for ATVs. Some properties in this range back up to BLM land or sit within walking distance of the Paiute ATV Trail.
Is Marysvale a year-round community or mostly seasonal? ▾
It's a mix. Marysvale has a small year-round population of roughly 400 residents, but a meaningful share of homes are used as second residences for ATV riders, hunters, and snowmobilers. Winters bring snow but the town sits at about 5,900 feet, so it's milder than nearby Beaver or Panguitch.
What should I know about water and utilities on rural Marysvale properties? ▾
Some homes inside town are on culinary water and sewer, while properties on the outskirts often run on wells and septic systems. Natural gas isn't widely available, so heating is typically propane, wood, or electric. Always confirm water rights and septic condition during due diligence.
How far is Marysvale from larger Utah cities and airports? ▾
Marysvale sits on US-89 in Piute County, about 3.5 hours south of Salt Lake City and roughly 2.5 hours north of St. George. Richfield, the nearest town with a hospital and full-size grocery, is about 30 minutes north. Cedar City Regional Airport is the closest commercial option at around 90 minutes.
Are sub-$500K homes in Marysvale good candidates for short-term rentals? ▾
The ATV trail traffic and Big Rock Candy Mountain tourism support a steady nightly-rental market, especially May through October and during the winter snowmobile season. Piute County is generally more permissive than Wasatch Front cities, but confirm current rules with the county before underwriting a property as a rental.
How much inventory is typically available under $500K here? ▾
Marysvale is a small market — the entire town has a few dozen homes change hands in a busy year, so active listings under $500K usually number in the single digits. New listings move quickly during spring and early summer when out-of-area buyers come through for ATV season.
